According this post made by Sub_Octavian on Reddit, the anti-detonation flag () supercedes all other modifiers when calculating detonation chance.

Now that is a whole new level of disgunstingness!

Been there as well. On the plus side, you tend to get back to prem league rather quickly.

Indeed. Was a pleasent surprise to have you on the team. It's always reassuring when you meet fellow forumites in battle. I felt that there was an immediate understanding on what to do and where to go.

Frankly, I don't know. I seem to remember that it is / was for random and coop, but I've not been in PvE battles for ages now.

Not sure if it's all that much an issue for people to get. The issue I see is that PvE players will have a much harder time to geht those 2nd and 3rd crates.

That's how I undertand it. It'd also make sense in context with the "premium to advance more quickly" approach.

I'll go for "try your luck" only and keep them.

It'll be modified XP, so hoist your flags, gentlemen. Same as Commander XP = modified XP

Pensacola as well as Yorck are special as they are the point in their lines where they switch their calibers to 203/210 mm while the IJN switches to that caliber with their T5 already. I've come to like my T7 cruisers, despite their somewhat tarnished reputation.

Pretty much what I was wondering. Calculating the content of a box when it is distributed vs calculating it when it is opened seems. I'd argue for the latter as it'd be less "storage intensive" for the server.

Well, I may be inclined to take a "can not guarantee" over a "will not happen". Well, you can pick a box and then just not open it. Which is where I'm not sure, hence I'm asking.

I've got a question here: When exactly does the game determine what the contents of such a box are? Is there a point in stockpiling "try your luck" boxes until the system is improved in that way that it takes into account which prem ships a player has in port?

Saw waxx25 in a few games yesterday or the day before. Won a few, lost a few, the usual ranked madness.

Had Aerroon in two battles yesterday, once on my team (in Bismarck) once on the enemy team (in Benson). First game went rather well, with a friendly Benson and me being able to knock out an enemy Benson very early in the game. Since there only were two DDs each side, We could control A cap on North (my job) while the other Benson went towards B to support the big guys there. Not an awfully exciting game for me, put down some smoke for the BBs on my side and tried to spot stuff for them. AFAIK we won that one without a ship lost. Second game, not all that well. Lost one of our DDs early, had to return to our main group. My team was whittled down and we lost the battle eventually.

Had two gaming sessions yesterday. The first one was about 20 games, which in the end meant that I lost one star. Second session was 12 games, as many as I felt comfortable with, which saw me advance 3 stars in the end. Taking a break between games, taking a break between too many games, that works for me and helps me to concentrate on each battle more. -- On another note, I saw few games lately where someone was accusing someone else of cheating/hacking. In each and every one of those cases, the other players, regardless of team, went out of their way to inform that particular guy that it was him making mistakes, not the other guy using hacks which resulted in him getting sunk. Quite a positive experience I have to say.

It has pay to progress (faster), which may or may not be similar / the same thing for some. (Yes the video is about WoT, but some aspects are present in WoWs as well).

Don't be that modest, Trollv1n. You own the titles anyway, the people are just lucky enough to be allowed to use what was bestowed on them

TL;DR?

You probably got nothing at all to say about a certain Australian ship MrConway? :-/

Tuccy, do you happen to know how many rounds could be fired in continuous fire for those guns (mainly the Bofors) before they had to stop because of the heat? Also, how often did they change the barrels for those guns? Accuracy may not have been as important as getting as much lead in the air as possible, but surely they'll have replaced those barrels relatively often, especially when they had been under sustained air attack? The air cooled guns in particular must've been prone to overheating after a few hundred rounds, really. The energy discharge in the barrel generates a lot of heat that has very little chance to go anywhere non-gun related.

Not that I adressed you in any way, but hey, don't let me stop you.
